Gorbio village is 'en fete' for three nights as we celebrate the 12th
Flamenco Festival. It started with sacred Gitane chants in the church.
The three singers, Gabriel de la Tomasa, Antonio El Clervo and Trini de
la Isla sing with such intensity and passion. The guitarists, David
Jimenez and Luismi Manzano play with a sweetness of tone and a
sensitivity that delighted us all. They all received a standing ovation
by those lucky enough to cram into the church of Saint Barthelmy. A
stunning beginning to get us all in a flamenco frame of mind.
